The Land-Shark Bivy was another piece of vital gear. With this we didn’t have to take the time to rig up some sort of shelter to place the child in. We were able to place him in the blanket inside of the bivy. This bivy was a ready-made shelter that blocked out the wind and snow. It also reflected his body heat back to him and kept the heat in that was provided by the chemical hand warmers.

STEALTH

What is Stealth and how can it help you survive?

The Land Shark is actually two different kinds of Instant Survival Shelter. Both sides provide you with the same lifesaving thermal protection, however, one is made to attract visual attention (International Orange), while the other keeps you hidden (Digital Camo).

Thermal cloaking keeps you hidden in plain sight.

Evading detection can mean the difference between life and death. Land Shark’s inherent thermal cloaking abilities reduce the user’s infrared signature to undetectable levels, even while using some of the most advanced commercial and military-grade infrared detection equipment.

Military and Soldier of Fortune tested: ZERO IR SIGNATURE

A 30-minute test using the highly rated FLIR, Inc. Model 2000AB helicopter-mounted IR detector, operating in the 8-14 micron wavelength range, failed to locate three individuals concealed in Land Shark bags. Soldier of Fortune magazine tested the Land Shark bag using the Life-Finder hand-held IR detector. The magazine’s testers were also unable to locate three individuals concealed in Land Shark bags during the 30-minute test. After testing, Soldier of Fortune magazine concluded that: “The new StealthBag is essential gear for those in a SERE (Survival Evasion Resistance Escape) scenario whose survival depends on their ability to hide not only from visual detection but [from] sophisticated infrared detectors as well.”

An increasingly important tool in your arsenal

With the increased use of infrared detection equipment by both military and law enforcement personnel, infrared cloaking capability has become an extremely important evasion tactic. The Land Shark Instant Survival Shelter reduces the wearer’s infrared signature to undetectable levels while remaining a compact and affordable survival tool.

​After a knife, this is now the first item that gets put in our go-pack, for certain protection against whatever elements one may encounter on land, sea or air.
